Patch Notes 0.8.7.b: Hotfixed issue where campaign levels do not show up
HI! We have a tiny hotfix today for users who have been experiencing the issue causing old save files to make the campaign levels not show up.
If you're still experiencing the bug after restarting your computer and verifying the integrity of the game-files please email support@landfall.se
As for new content updates, it's looking like they're coming in February - you can read more about what's to come in February-April here: https://steamcommunity.com/gid/103582791455606666/announcements/detail/1703981547423952931
Information about the Unit Creator!
There has been a lot of questions in regards to the Unit Creator - this post is aiming to answer some of them and make it clear what the Unit Creator is.
When will the Unit creator be released?
Towards the end of Early Access/Game Preview, most likely in Q2/Early Summer of 2020.
What is the Unit Creator?
The Unit Editor will let you make your own units. Mix and match clothes and recolor them to your liking. Equip and mix weapons from the game's other units and make your own factions of crazy TABS units.
The Unit Editor will allow users to:
Equip and recolor clothes to units.
Equip and recolor weapons to units.
Equip special abilities to your units.
Change between the normal humanoid and other unit types
Save your units and make your own factions.
Use those units and faction in custom battles/campaigns you make and upload them to the workshop.
The Unit Editor features we'd like to get in, but cannot confirm until tested:
Importing custom clothing models
Making mounted units
Hand placing props on units.
The Unit Editor will not allow for:
Making your own clothes, weapons or abilities inside of the editor.
We will have a bunch of cool props and outfits in the editor to enable you to create a bunch of stuff!
Here are some screenshots of the work in progress creator:
We hope this answers your questions! :)
Patch 0.8.7.A: Fixed a security issue
Heya! We just released a small patch to fix a security issue. We have so far not seen anyone experiencing issues with this but since the kind people over at Modzero AG alerted us to it we wanted to make the game better and more secure for you players.
No content in this patch :)
Yesterday we made a post about what's next for the game, you can read more here: https://steamcommunity.com/gid/103582791455606666/announcements/detail/1703981547423952931
What's next for the game in Q1 2020!
Happy belated new year!
You may be wondering what’s in store next for TABS in Q1 (January-March)?
Next up is an update with the Simulation maps shown in devclips, it’s going to include 20 new simulation maps and a campaign. It will most likely be ready at the end of the month or in February.
We’ve heard you, the Cheerleaders are getting a boost - they will not be the same as they were before the nerf but they will have a bigger cap than they currently do to bring back some of the fun in sandbox.
We’re also hard at work finishing the last faction, it will most likely come sometime during Q1 or early Q2 :) What do you think it will be?
As for the other features in the roadmap www.landfall.se/earlyaccess we have more info and estimations coming soon!
During Christmas, we released TABS on Xbox!
Xbox will be updated at the same time as the PC and Mac version now which means that we need a bit more time for each update - that said it also means they should be a lot more stable as we now have proper QA.
Questions? Post them in the forums or reach out to us on info@landfall.se

Nominate TABS for the Steam Awards!
We first showed you the TABS alpha in 2016 and the response was unbelievable. The community has supported the game ever since and has always been there with great feedback and unit suggestions.
Working on TABS is a lot of fun thanks to the happy and encouraging engagement from the community, it is what has made TABS into a labor of love for us!
Nominating TABS for the Labor of Love 2019 Award is to nominate TABS’ loving community as much as it is to nominate the game itself.
